You might have seen Isabelle Yacoubou crying on TV after the end of game against Czech Republic as Sandrine Gruda points to something in the stands. As it turned out it was this chap proposing her to get married.

It appears it’s not just any ordinary proposal from a fan the likes of which athletes like Hope Solo can see countless times in the stands.Loosely translated Yacoubou from Ladyhoop:

I said yes, yes, yes and yes. I would not have imagined a better way and a better time so I am double happy. During the last timeout, he called me because I was looking at him all the time and I said “What? ”And I saw the poster. Oh my God!

Good luck falling asleep after that kind of night!
